Okay but which are the best debuggers that support Win16 (or NewExecutable) exes?

Which VM emulators/simulators provide a debugger though?
Best way of debugging Win16 programs on 64-bit Windows?
Posted on 2019-04-14, 02:55
I already have experience with the DOSBox debugger, but it's proving really difficult to do effective debugging with it on Windows 3.x programs - and DOS programs for that matter - simply because of the lack of support for on-read breakpoints (it can only do on-write breakpoints). I probably …
Re: DOSBox ECE (for Windows)
Posted on 2019-04-13, 15:50
Might as well ask, Yesterplay... is there any chance you could add the datestamp/timestamp support into ECE in the future? Kinda like the original dates/times to be kept on files during extraction where it was allowed on original DOS. It was/is a positive feature of Daum for me as well as in DOSBox …

Is a Thunk wrapper for NT systems possible?
Posted on 2017-10-07, 15:24
I've noticed that with a select few games certain 9x-only functions are explicitly required, namely "SMapLS_IP_EBP", "SUnMapLS_IP_EBP", "ThunkConnect32" and "QT_Thunk". They all seem to be related to Thunk (as proven by this random page I discovered ). Swiv 3D for instance uses ThunkConnect32 within …
Re: Looking for MID-to-WAV converter, Windows, command line, *not* SF2-based

foobar2000 with the "MIDI synthesizer host" plugin host can convert at high speed. It comes with Munt (Super MUNT GM), Soundfont support, VSTi support and some FM emulators. http://www.foobar2000.org/download http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_midi Yes, I did already mention fb2k earlier …
Re: Looking for MID-to-WAV converter, Windows, command line, *not* SF2-based
Posted on 2017-07-04, 22:30
Hi, I do not think such a converter can exist since there is no function in the WinMM API to get back sample data from Midi Out drivers. You can only send Midi messages to drivers that usually render samples directly to WaveOut (virtual Midi cables are exceptions). So Superfury is right, only real- …

Yeah, oops, just noticed the edit to your post after I made my comment (the posting of which I delayed due to being momentarily distracted). So I guess Winamp is a bust unless someone makes a replacement Midi plugin for it (there's already many alternative MOD plugins for it, so I hold out hope). …
Re: Looking for MID-to-WAV converter, Windows, command line, *not* SF2-based

IIRC WinAMP should have a WAV output plugin along with a (buggy!) MIDI input plugin that can sample from midi devices (really meant for the visualizers etc). Yes, I'm aware of Winamp and its own MIDI-to-WAV usefulness. I just wish someone would write a CLI frontend that utilises in_midi.dll (and I …
Looking for MID-to-WAV converter, Windows, command line, *not* SF2-based

Whew! Glad I could get that title in at least without running out of space. But to be more precise, I am looking for: 1) A command-line program for Windows... 2) ...that can convert a MIDI file to a WAV file... 3) ...that doesn't simply use soundfonts... 4) ...but instead is able to use external …
Any way to force bi filtering without DxWnd's Bilinear option on GPU?
Posted on 2017-02-18, 04:37
Since obtaining a GeForce GTX 750 Ti a couple of weeks ago, I was testing all my previous DxWnd configs for select games through it and was dismayed to discover that what previously looked smooth and beautiful through my Intel HD Graphics 2000, now came across as awkwardly jagged and pixellated in …
Re: MDK 3DFX through dgVoodoo
Posted on 2017-02-17, 18:43
That I'm aware of. :) Watched that Digital Foundry video a couple of days ago. There's just one thing that Mr DF (Yeah, I don't know his actual name. Sue me. :P) deigned to acknowledge in his piece however... the D3D build is known to introduce a fair amount of its own, prominent visual glitches. …
MDK 3DFX through dgVoodoo
Posted on 2017-02-16, 18:27
Well, okay, here's a relatively more minor issue compared to the last one. dgVoodoo2 can almost pull off a wonderful upscaled display of MDK through its 3DFX build. I say 'almost', because it would appear that if you make the game run beyond its original 640x480 resolution, some ghosting effects are …
Re: Grand Theft Auto 1 + London '69

I was hoping to get the game to run under my native desktop resolution (for seamless transition purposes) rather than forcing 640x480, hence my experimenting with wrappers.
Grand Theft Auto 1 + London '69

Okay, it's been pointed out before, but........ will the renders-the-game-unplayable input lag be fixed in these two titles for dgVoodoo soon? I dropped in and out of dgVoodoo over the past year or so trying to see if it would improve certain games, and since then (the past few weeks to be precise) …
Re: DOSBox-X branch

Hello again. I unfortunately seem to be flummoxed and frustratred when it comes to finding a combination of a working build and a configuration setup that will allow me to actually install Windows 95. I'm trying to install Win95 OSR2, seeing as that's my preferred version. I adjusted my config to …

Hey, just had a couple of questions to ask regarding DOSBox-X if that's okay. 1) What's going on with the config saving function at the moment? Two or three releases ago it did the traditional thing of auto-building an extended config in %LocalAppData%\DOSBox with all the possible settings, but now …

I've been using _inmm for some time, typically better performance/behaviour with most games than ogg-winmm. However, I just tend to stick with DirectShow itself for playing the music files and have felt no need to use an external player like Winamp. Did you try DirectSound? If you're still using the …

It's not the full game. Just the music files and any modified files designed to replace the originals. The bulk of the game still has to be installed from the CDs.
